I believe that it is the best way for me to achieve financial independence.A few questions I have for anyone reading my post:1.)

I would love to be able to help others achieve their goals.

So, have you achieved the goals that you mentioned on your site in Atlanta?

Of the three of them, I'd be willing to bet that none work more than 30 hours/week.I personally believe that -- once you know what you're doing and have the right systems in place -- making $150K without too much effort is pretty easy to achieve, at least in my market, which is nothing exceptional.

A process you learn and continually refine and replicate to achieve success and I have no doubt that if I do enough research and development relationships with individuals within the industry, building a strong team behind me I can achieve my goal.

For this particular property I think $800 is certainly achievable, and I like to be conservative.

Well I haven't worked in residential for years and years (long time ago).When I did a newbie investor would be looking for a house with just cosmetic (carpet and paint) to flip.The newbie investor was scared of anything more substantial.Problem was all the regular home buyers would bid close to asking or over because they were fine with fixing up and having 5k to 15k equity afterwords.The investor could not buy at those margins unless they were holding to rent out and the rental numbers made sense for the price paid.So in my opinion finding a home near mint that needs little work at a low price is finding a needle in a haystack.More realistic for flipping is finding properties needing substantial work where the owner occupant is scared away.You the investor can get the problems fixed really cheap below regular labor and material rates.This helps you achieve more leverage to buy the property at a lower price and create more equity on the rehab as well.That is probably where the bigger returns are.

That may be enough to achieve your goals.

Keep up the good work and results will be achieved down the road.

Have a clear roadmap of your goals and the route to achieve them.
